Abstract in brief

  • This meta-analysis reviews how religiosity and spirituality (RS) relate to health, finding a small but significant positive effect on various physiological markers like blood pressure and inflammation.
  • Some types of religiosity, both extrinsic (outward practices) and intrinsic (inner beliefs), are linked to better health outcomes.
  • The study suggests that RS might improve health by reducing stress and depression, which can influence inflammation and other health issues, encouraging future research into these mechanisms.]
